Cleveland scores another July coup: LeBron James coming home

CLEVELAND, July 11, 2014—Looks like it’s Cleveland’s lucky week. First, they land the 2016 GOP National Convention.

And now, hometown hero, basketballer LeBron James has mad it official according to several sources: He’s announced headed back to his home state of Ohio to rejoin his original NBA team, the Cleveland Cavaliers, whom he jilted in favor of the Miami Heat in 2010 after a huge pre-move hype build-up.

In an exclusive appearing today in Sports Illustrated online, the Akron native declared firmly he’s “going home.” His highly anticipated re-decision was due, at least in part, to his free agency after the turn of the current season.
